A Hauntingly Good Idea for Mason Jars

There’s no denying it: Halloween really is all about the treats. Chocolate, caramel corn, cupcakes — sign me up! It’s the one time of year I can eat all of that (in one sitting) and not feel bad about it. So, of course I was struck by the sweet simplicity behind this all-desserts-themed Halloween bash that blogger Kelsey Siemens of The Farmer’s Daughter threw with her sister Jordyn.

The entire spread looks amazing, but there’s one thing here that really blew my mind. (Hint: The name of this post might have given it away.)

Look at how these popcorn cones are being displayed! It’s one of the most clever Mason jar hacks I’ve seen in a long time. It sure beats buying a special tray or holder. And at this point, who among us doesn’t have a couple dozen Mason jars sitting around?

One more idea stuck with me: To create DIY cupcake toppers, Kelsey sandwiched stickers from Tiny Prints on skewers. So cute! And so easy! To keep the party looking consistent, the same stickers were used to seal the invitations and favor bags. (Get it? The idea stuck with me!)

Plus, as I mentioned, the snacks were all sweets: cookies, caramel corn, candies, and cupcakes. Gotta love a simple Halloween soirée with a few tricks — and lots of treats.
